5 Personal Tips To Getting Traffic With Guest Blogging
There is 1 main thing I need to highlight with today post about getting traffic with guest blogging. If
you don’t think this is what you are looking for, at least I save your time from reading further. 
>>> The tips are not about emailing someone famous in your niche. This is more about guest
blogging at the common blogging platforms such as ComLuv.com. The reason I am
recommending this is because as an affiliate marketing beginners, you often get
discouraging feedback when trying to email someone for a guest post slot.
Since we have make things clear, let’s see how you guest blog
Frequency of guest blogging
Needless to say this is one of the main criteria for your guest blogging or traffic success. You need to
push out content consistently to build your name on the internet. Because when you slow down
your publishing, your will start to lose traction to your post and your traffic might slow down.
Worst still, the personal brand that you are trying to build with guest blogging, it might start
dwindling down because your followers thought you are MIA in your niche.
Also, don’t just limit your guest posting in a single blog.
Unless you have secured the slot you want with the blogger in your mind, I suggest you spread your
posting in a few blogs during this initial period.
But I am not a good writer
Bah......
I heard that too many times that I almost want to puke.

To be frank, I am not a good writer too. If you have been following me here, you will see that I too
have my shortcoming. If you have visit any guest blogging sites too, you will also see that not all the
bloggers have good command of English.
The key here is not about being perfect.
The key here is about getting your message across. It is about how you can add value to your
readers, build your reputation and drive traffic to your site.
Now, please don’t misunderstand that I say you can simply publish something on other’s blog. You
will still need to have basic and common control of your English so that your post can be accepted.
Don’t worry that you are starting out with guest blogging. You can always outsource the task to
Odesk or Elance if you are unfamiliar with coming with your own content. You just need to be clear
with your freelancers about the post you are looking for.
Read, write and stick with it
If you are really dead broke that you can’t afford to outsource the work, my only recommendation
to you is to start reading and writing. As the beginner in this, you will want to dedicate some time
(say 1 hour a day) to read about others post and articles. You can also read books and magazines to
help develop the writer instinct of yours.
Next is to start writing. Don’t worry that you don’t know where to start.
Because I believe the reason you choose a niche to be in is that something click with you. just start
with that. So, if you are in the niche of being a better parent, just start with why being a good parent
is important to you.
Unlike article marketing, guest blogging is very much about delivering your voice to the world. So,
you are free to write in an informal manner.
By the way, writing is a skill that can be gradually developed.
As you get more familiar with writing, the easier for you to do it and recognise the topic that people
are going to read about. Also, the more you do it, the less time you will need to deliver an effective
post.
Remember,
“All success start with a baby step”
The question is whether you want to start with the baby step or not.
Guest post on site with good PR
You can get a list of blogs that you can guest post to with Google. Once you got the list, you can then
check the page rank (PR) with any Page Rank Checker. I recommend you start with the blogs with
page rank 5-6 which is quite common that you can see.

The reason I am recommending this is because you and me only have 24 hours a day and we all have
our to dos in that 24 hours. With that being said, you simply don’t have the time to spare to write for
sites with lower page rank.
Besides, your post will get better chance of search engine ranking with blog with higher page rank.
That’s what you are aiming for right?
To get better result with the effort you invested in.
I am not being prejudice or anything because this is the fact we need to face. I hope that the blog
owner will forgive me when they see this.
By Line or Your Bio
The last tip I want to share with you is about the by line or bio in blogs.
The rule of thumb is that your bio is NOT your link farm. I repeat
NOT your link farm...
So, don’t put all your target keywords in the bio and made it into a whole junk of mess.
It gives bad impression and turns the readers away. Also, for any sensible blog owners, your
manipulative by line will not go through anyway.
Next is to describe your experience and what you do. If you have any remarkable result in your
niche, now is the time to bring it out and let it shine. Achievements like these are often magnet to
draw readers to your site.
Thirdly, try to write your bio in a 3rd
person view. Although I do see guest bloggers putting their bio
with 1st
person view, I can’t comment that they are wrong. I am just recommending this base on the
common practise and common practise is to present bio in a 3rd
person perspective.
Of course you can still write as 1st
person. It is totally depend on your own comfort.
Lastly, if you are available on any social media platform, it is also a good idea to share in the bio so
that your readers can become your followers. This can help to broaden your business reach to your
readers even when they are not reading your post.
So there you go, those are my 5 personal tips for guest blogging and I hope they can of use to you as
the affiliate marketing beginners.
Do you have question or suggestion you want to add? You can post it in the comment.
To your affiliate marketing success,
